Summary The court convicted the accused, Ashwini Natubhai Sitapara, under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881 for dishonoring a cheque of ₹35,720. The complainant (financer) had given loans to the accused, and the accused issued a cheque as security for repayment. When the cheque was deposited, it bounced due to insufficient funds, and despite receiving a legal notice, the accused failed to pay the amount. The court found that the accused's defense lacked credible evidence to rebut the presumption that the cheque was issued for debt discharge, and sentenced him to one year simple imprisonment with a compensation order of ₹35,720 to be paid to the complainant.
